To aid curious readers, the cell biology term for this (many genes to do X) is pleiotropy. The Wikipedia article [0] conveniently includes a discussion on its relevance in autism.

I was in Japan last year. iPhone version was super easy and worked flawlessly for me.

I can see it, the Sign Up dialog has a Close button.

Not in my experience. I have only flown international ten times or so in the past 20yrs but I have never seen that when returning to Aus.

Phishing implies exploitable data collection. Is that happening here?

They don't really care about any of that. The NRA has been a slush fund for it's leadership for a while.

Finally an open source tool doing this!

When you tap your card on a terminal, it reads and rewrites the card locally in an instant, with the entire transaction processed in under 200 milliseconds.

It's depressing that some transport systems delivered decades later couldn't match this (using a proprietary card not a credit card)


Sure, why not pick idiocracy. You miss the point. People now cannot predict the future, all analogs are simultaneously possible and unlikely. Pick any event we have experienced, 9/11, COVID. Sure, some predictions were close, but nothing like the reality of living through it.

since I'm getting a bit of pushback on how great tmux is (and it is nice) , just imagine the scenario of you scrolling back through your claude code cli to check some hour old message and you get a flash of ascii. normal right? even without claude code, it could be any tui, but the one thing that every dev uses... tmux.

Would you say that's a progressive point of view, or a conservative one?

I'm not sure what the ideological term is for someone who doesn't argue for a return to the past or advancement into the future, but for stasis of current conditions.


absolutely, it's congress' fault too for not creating new election funding laws

you're right that CU didn't directly open the floodgates, though it did immediately unlock the option for companies to spend from their general funds without limit

But the bigger problem was SCOTUS' decision provided the reasoning that downstream courts could rely on in their decisions, and _those_ opened the floodgates (Speechnow.org vs FEC specifically)


I live in a rural area of the southwest and hadn't traveled or flown since the pandemic, until last spring. Then I flew to Minneapolis to say goodbye to a dying aunt. The ethnic change I saw in the city and on my flights were shocking to me. The culture shift didn't feel trivial to me. I suppose it does if you live with it daily.

> I think one of the fundamental problem with h1b is that it is labeled as "non-immigrant" whereas for all practical purposes it is really an immigrant visa.

The fundamental problem is people spreading this lie. It has a path to permanent immigration, but it is a non immigrant visa, it is very clearly define and describe as such.

It is idiotic to build a life in a country where you only have a temporary visa. I've lived in 4 countries and I never assumed I would forever be allowed to stay in any of them.

The US do not owe a path to permanent residency to anyone.


But isn't that really just about giving "front end" models more access to specialized tool libraries, which include models tuned to specific tasks? Like the first model says ah, we're being asked to code something, oh and we've been provided with some example code, let me invoke a tool call to my model the recognizes many languages, that model says that we're looking at ocaml. Okay, I better pass this off to my ocaml model which will decipher the supplied code and make a plan for what we do about the user's intent. The ocaml model recognizes that there are tests in the supplied code, let's have the special testing model have a look at the testing strategy and see how that fits in with what we just implemented, etc etc.

And perhaps at the end it all gets a single pass by a god-tier model for overall sanity and congruence, but the actual work, planning, coordination, and even user interaction was done by cheaper and faster agents of much more limited capability.


Exploding the universe violates my preferences.

Competitive advantage why? Will it really make them more money? They already have Google Cloud.

Citizenship, while usually a circumstance of birth, comes with a a shared responsibility of the society one is a citizen of. That responsibility also goes the other way, where the society has a duty to look out for the citizen

While it sucks that people from other societies dont feel like those societies are good for them, it doesnt mean that citizens of the host society should extend that responsibility to people who do not share responsibility for that society like citizens do.

Essentially these foreign workers are mercenaries, and do not derserve the same loyalty and protections that citizens do


Judging from noblog's opening statement of "connecting radical people" together with a welcoming bomb, I'd suspect they are very welcoming to open, peaceful discussions, particulary with those holding opposing views.

> "When fascism returns, it will not say, 'I am fascism.' No, it will say, 'I am anti-fascism.'" – Ignazio Silone


But that's the thing; vibe coders are not necessarily developers now. My platform is targeted at non-technical builders.

All Google has to do is build a model that works good enough for the Gemini app and for Spark. And they have it.

What scares me about climate change is how frequent these “little figures” are getting wrecked.

In Japan we have had these sudden flood events this year, people just die as their cars are washed away.

We have really fucked the climate and this is just the beginning.


I migrated a Node 24 repo to pnpm 12 and it works absolutely fine with corepack out of the box.

Coincidentally just watched the fascinating history of the deadliest thing ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJYfSfh7eWs

Searle's main argument seems to be that meat is magic and silicon is not.

Could you say more about how caching works? One major advantage of sticking with a single model is saving money on cached input tokens. I'd imagine if you swap between a bunch of models, you may improve performance but cost would would balloon out of control

AI, on the other hand, runs on the devices we already have, and it uses natural language. We don’t have to adapt to it because it can adapt to us.

So much for those people who tried to claim they knew how to prompt AI better then the next person.


None of the original source code exists in these projects. It’s all created from scratch.

Copyright for this new code is owned by the person doing decompilation. No one knows how similar to the original it is or not, just that it compiles to the same output.


> let the market solve

That's how we got here in the first place.


It's a little smarter and more effective in some ways, especially those that can be benchmarked. I suspect that they've lost something that is hard to benchmark for.
